Hong Kong Storm: The King of Jobs

Chapter 556, Section 146: Showing Extra Care

Bai Jiaji left the scene, and Guo Guohao watched his superior leave. When he turned around, he found that the sycophant Xiao Situ was still saluting. He then sneered, "Situ, no, Xiao Situ."

"I didn't expect you still hadn't gotten rid of your habit of flattery. If you hadn't flattered me and had taken the stairs, you would definitely have been one step ahead of me."

“Now that the Organized Crime and Triad Bureau has moved to the tenth floor, and the Narcotics Investigation Department is on the sixth floor, even if you climb, you'll be faster than me.”

"Flattery!"

Hearing his arch-rival's sarcastic remarks, Xiao Situ didn't care. There were a lot of cases to solve, and he was fine with it. As the deputy commander of the professor case, he didn't have to worry about anything or work overtime, and he could get half the credit.

"Rotten Mouth Hao, you really only have a rotten mouth! You can't expect anything good to come out of a dog's mouth."

"I'll beat your lungs out!"

"Alright! The man is now yours at the OTC. I'm going back to my office to sleep. Send someone to my office with the statement you've taken. Be smart, or I won't sign the case closure report."

Xiao Situ deliberately yawned, patted his mouth, turned around and left without hesitation.

"This idiot is still stubborn as a mule!"

Guo Guohao raised his middle finger at Xiao Situ's back and made a vulgar gesture with his other hand.

The guys standing nearby couldn't hold back and burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at! Hurry up and get to work so we can finish and go home. It's almost dawn!"

Guo Guohao told the men next to him to stop laughing. He looked at Ding Gou, who was standing to the side, and gave him a wink, signaling him to get to work.

The dog standing to the side understood immediately, turned around and left to attend to its own business.

"A-Zai, submit an application to the Political Department to request a safe room."

After Guo Guohao saw that the forensic doctor had moved the body away and that the plastic bandages on Professor A's hands and feet had been removed by the evidence team, allowing him to move freely, he asked A-zai to prepare a cell that matched Professor A's identity.

"Calling you Professor doesn't seem quite right. I'll just call you Professor A! There's a rumor circulating that Professor A married Song Sheng's daughter. I wonder which of the two is it?"

The purpose of saying this was to lay the truth on Professor A and the others, to tell them not to try to get away with it. Everyone here isn't stupid. Since you revealed your identity right away, it means you want everyone to cooperate.

Guo Guohao needs to show Professor A that he has exclusive intelligence sources and trump cards to play, and that he should be sensible.

"Sir, please allow me to introduce you. This is my sister, Professor K, and this is my wife, Song Ci."

Professor A stepped out of the van, stretched his arms and legs, and politely introduced his family to Guo Guohao.

Upon hearing Professor A's introduction, Guo Guohao was momentarily stunned. It was so impeccably polite. If one only listened to this conversation, one would think it was a banquet at the Governor's Mansion, where introductions were being made.

You can call me Inspector Kwok!

“Professor K, this is our first meeting, but I’ve been looking for you for a long time. Using Bei Mei to transport Miss Bai is a really bold idea.”

“I haven’t filed charges against any of your subordinates; I’m waiting for you, the mastermind behind it all, to come to light.”

"Miss Song, don't worry, you're in the highest security cell this time. Your dad shouldn't be able to get you out."

"Everyone, bring out the twin leaves, but be gentle. Don't let Miss Song suffer. Her father is Mr. Song, the emperor of Hong Kong's underworld. If you offend him, you'll all be dead!"

Guo Guohao smiled cruelly. In such a major case, there was no need to resort to underhanded tactics or torture to extract confessions. These three scoundrels, once they entered the police station, would only have two choices: cooperate or end their own lives. Their financial backers, the demolition companies, the triads providing protection, and even the accomplices in Professor A's team who hadn't been implicated by the police, would all find an opportunity to eliminate Professor A's family.

Becoming a tainted witness and implicating everyone in Hong Kong is the only way to achieve redemption.

Guo Guohao wouldn't be lenient with such a big fish, nor would he rush things. He would simmer it slowly, emptying Professor A's belly of all his secrets.

A-zai took out the twin leaves from his waist and fastened them for Professor A. He looked at Professor A with a complicated expression. Mei-feng had recently met with him to inquire about Professor A's whereabouts.

He had been giving evasive answers, but tonight's flight was just too big; he couldn't hide it anymore.

His father is lying in the Hong Kong Sanatorium & Hospital, where he costs around 20,000 yuan a day. Thanks to the hospital's excellent care, his father is now able to walk on his own.

Although his father wouldn't ask many questions, every time he saw him, he would tightly grasp his hands, his eyes filled with a longing for life. At that moment, silence spoke louder than a thousand words.

A-zai often puts himself in others' shoes. If he were lying in a hospital bed, he would probably be even more afraid of dying than his father. He can't let someone who's drowning grab onto a straw; they really will hold on to it desperately.

"Hey A, what's wrong with you? You look terrible, can you take a break?"

"Can I borrow a light?"

Guo Guohao took out his cigarette case, picked out a cigarette, but in his haste to come out, he didn't take a lighter. He turned his head, wanting to borrow a light from A-zai, and saw A-zai's unpredictable expression.

"Officer Guo, I'm working overtime every day. It would be a miracle if I looked any better!"

"After I've settled things with the people, I'm going to go back to my office and get some sleep. I just can't take it anymore."

A-zai took out a disposable lighter, handed it to Guo Guohao, and casually took the cigarette case, lighting one for himself as well.

"Damn it! If your body can't take it, why didn't you say so earlier!"

"Perfect, you're getting a good deal!"

Seeing that his top lieutenant was exhausted, Guo Guohao squinted, a cigarette dangling from his lips, and took out a room key from his pocket, handing it to A-Zai.

"What?"

A took the room key and looked at his boss with a puzzled expression.

“I have a relative who came to Hong Kong to visit me. To make it easier for us to meet, I booked a room at the Marriott Hotel next door. However, my relative had something come up and left Hong Kong that day, so the room was not used.”

"Since it's open, it's just sitting there anyway. Go and rest for three hours, take a shower, and send your clothes to the dry cleaners. It'll all be on the room bill."

"Without Shapison's signature, the interrogation cannot begin. Take him to the safe house, and you can go and rest."

"At this time, sleeping for two or three hours is the most refreshing thing to do."

"If you work hard when you're young, you'll suffer when you're old."

"Marriott Hotel, Room F104. If you have an appetite, you can try the Marriott Hotel's 24-hour buffet restaurant first. There are many delicious dishes."

Guo Guohao, with a cigarette dangling from his lips, patted A-zai on the shoulder and turned to leave before giving him a chance to refuse.

A-Zai watched Guo Guohao's departing figure, then looked down at the room card in his hand, a troubled expression on his face. After thinking it over, he decided to return to headquarters first and send Lion Nose to the equipment department for maintenance.
